At UIS, the online program is a faculty-driven initiative - it is NOT an administrative mandate.
- Online degree programs at UIS are faculty-driven; departmental faculty first must vote to put their degrees online.
- College must then approve, then the Undergraduate or Graduate Council, then the Campus Senate.
- Faculty receive a modest course development stipend (or release time).
- More information at: http://online.uis.edu/info/process.html
At UIS, the online program also has a distributed ownership.
- At UIS, no single person “owns” the online initiative; rather, there is a distributed ownership, so that everyone “owns” the initiative.
- It isn’t even the responsibility of a single office – everyone, from the departmental secretaries to the provost, takes responsibility for a portion of the success of the online programs.
